LAS VEGAS — Poised for accelerated growth this year, Ntooitive, a leading digital advertising and technology company, announced the addition of four new hires to its technology team in January: Tony Dawson, general manager of technology, Don McCoole, vice president of sales engineering, Jon Denton, vice president of sales, and Phil Turner, senior director of small and midsize business.  

Reporting to co-founders Ryan Christiansen and Vikas Khorana, these veteran sales and partnership executives will help fuel increasing demand by expanding product roadmap and partnership development for more effective multichannel customer engagement. 

“We’re continuing on our path of technology-led growth by welcoming Tony, Don, Jon and Phil to the team,” Ryan Christiansen, co-founder and CEO of Ntooitive, said. “With over 40 years of combined business acumen, I am confident they will help us to continue to effectively deliver superior value to our clients.  Each one of them is an accomplished leader passionately committed to spearheading growth, driving partnerships, and delivering innovative customer-centric solutions. Their impressive experience in forming and leading teams in their respective areas of expertise will help to position us well for the future.”  

The expansion of the technology team follows closely on the heels of Ntooitive’s impressive three-year revenue growth of 569%, earning the company recognition on Inc. magazine’s 2020 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies.
